She then saw a tall, thin man. That was Zach, also known as "Monkey". Like the other guy, he was also Ella's high school classmate.
"Monkey! Where have you been all this time?! You never replied to my messages!" Ella hugged him and spoke to him in discontent.
Zach cheerfully gave her a big hug: "I went to Dreles after our graduation. My phone was stolen when I got there, so I lost all my contacts"he explained to her.
"Well, no wonder you never replied." That explained everything.
Sum then pulled out her chair for her: "Let's sit down!" They sat in a circle around the table.
When Ella sat down, Sum sat beside her.
As the atmosphere started warming up in the room, Sum called over the waiter: "Two bottles of your best liqueur and two bottles of your best red wine, please."
It took Sum a lot of effort to reach out to their former high school and college classmates who had a good relationship with Ella for the dinner they had planned out for tonight.
Sum poured wine for the ladies and liquor for the men. "Sum, we are so flattered to have at our table a CEO filling our glasses." Molly took her wine glass, and quipped.
"Don't be. Tomorrow is Ella's birthday. How about we celebrate Ella's birthday in advance, eh?" Ella didn't expect that at all. She had no idea that Sum still remembered when her birthday was.
At this time, the other four people each took out a gift and gave it to Ella: "Ella, happy birthday to you in advance!" Ella's arms were filled with gifts from her former classmates in an instant.
She was touched and almost speechless at the sight of them giving her their best wishes: "I am so happy, thank you... Thank you..." She wept as she thanked them.
Sum hurried up to help her put aside the gifts and handed over a couple of tissues to her: "You're a grown girl now. You can't just cry out like that in front of us!" It really hurt when he saw her tears.
"Yeah, Ella, you're a mother now. You can't be acting like a little girl no more."
"Don't cry moon, aren't you glad to see us?"
... Everyone gathered around and comforted her with warm words.
Sum told them in advance about what was happening before meeting Ella in the hotel room, so they knew she was experiencing some sort of emotional upheavals recently. Thus none of them mentioned of Samuel to her.
Ella didn't want to be a buzzkill to them. She wiped off the tears: "I'm so happy to see you all here..." What she said was more than true, and the fact that they even gathered on the day before her birthday, wishing her well, made her even more happy.
"Hey, you didn't come to our college schoolmates reunion party last time. Everybody thought that your absence was such a pity. Now that we finally met with each other again, this time, let's add each other
on Wechat and save everyone's phone number, so we can talk with each other every now and then." Molly 's words sounded in everyone's ears and they immediately took out their mobile phones, added one another as WeChat friends, and swapped their mobile phone numbers.
Ella was completely wasted after drinking only two glasses of liqueur.
Molly and Yvonne also drank a lot. The three men escorted them to their hotel room, and then felt a little more relieved.
The three guys had also ordered another room, next to theirs, in case anything bad happened.
So, for the first time, Ella stayed out all night.
At one o 'clock in the morning, Samuel stood at his bedroom's window, smoking a cigarette.
He could still feel her scent, but she wasn't there.
Anna received a call from Samuel in the middle of the night. When she saw it she immediately thought there was something urgent.
"Call her and see where she is." said Samuel, calmly.
Anna knew whom he meant. She quietly breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay."
Five minutes later, Samuel's phone rang. "Mr. Lowell, Ella's phone is off." Anna's voice sounded worried on the other end.
There was a silence. "I see."
Resisting the urge to go out to find her, Samuel lay down in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep all night.
Just after dawn, Samuel rubbed his sore eyebrows and got up out of bed.
For the first time, Samuel couldn't sleep as her perfume surrounded him in the room, yet she was not around.
His cell phone suddenly rang. It was Anna.
"Hi."
"Mr. Lowell ... Have you seen the news?" Anna asked cautiously. Her cell phone exploded with incoming calls just after six o'clock that morning.
Samuel ended the conversation. He opened his Weibo account and found the hot topic.
"Mrs. Ella met Sum, the new rich CEO of the Maverl Corp. last night. The divorce rumor is confirmed."
"The international top lawyer Samuel was cuckolded!"
Samuel gripped his cell phone tightly, and the veins on his arms were now particularly prominent as he saw the posts.
After he clicked a few of them, he saw several pictures posted in them. He could recognize Sum entering a hotel with Ella by his arm.
With them there was also Yvonne, a model, in another guy's arms. But all the attention was fixed on Ella and Sum, since one was married, and the other was a new rich CEO.
It said the six people entered the hotel and never came out.
Six of them, three men and three women... People had now a lot to imagine about what was happening in the hotel…
Samuel's face fell. Was this what Ella was really capable of? He had brought Emma back home yesterday evening because something had happened in her house and couldn't stay in it for the night, and now Ella had cuckolded him.
Seven o'clock in the morning
The door of the three women's room was being knocked with force.
Ella woke up first. She massaged her temples and muttered in discontent: "Who is it? So noisy!"
Then Yvonne woke. She opened her eyes and stared at the strange ceiling of the room. Where was she?
Molly woke up last. She went to open the door: "Who is it? You are so annoying!" The door was opened and the three men outside almost fell to the ground.
"We are now sieged by the journalists because of Yvonne and Ella. You need to go out first. To avert suspicion, we'll stay here until noon." Sum briefed them on what had happened.
Ella was married. It would put a bad influence on her if the press caught the six of them leaving the hotel together.
And they were surrounded by journalists? Yvonne sat up in bed with her hair all messy. She was allergic to the press. Her heart started to beat faster and faster when she heard the news.
"OMG, what can we do now? What should I do! My agent would nag me to death if he knew what happened!" Yvonne got off the bed and started moving around the room anxiously.
Ella was the calmest. Even though she didn't go home last night, Samuel was too busy making out with Emmato have the time to care about where she was or what she did all night.
"No. Since we entered the hotel together, we'll leave it together. It would look suspicious if we tried to hide something", said Ella. She then went to the bathroom, and started to wash herself up.
The others looked at each other and decided that this is the best thing to do. Ella had just left the entertainment business for a couple of years.
